Don't let your child waste the summer in front of a screen

The lazy days of summer can lead to lazy hours in front of the TV, computer or portable game system. But experts say it's important to limit "screen time." A good rule of thumb is two hours a day or fewer. To fill other hours in the day:

Be the entertainment. Instead of watching a show, your child can create one! Encourage her to choose an exciting storyline and act it out with friends or stuffed animals.
Play classic games. Fill a bucket with traditional summer toys, including sidewalk chalk, balls, bubble stuff and water sprayers. When the weather is right, take it outside for hours of fun.
Go somewhere new. Become a "tourist" in your area. Imagine you are just visiting for a day, and you want to see the most important local sites. What would you choose?
Plan a treasure hunt. Hide lots of clues, with each one leading to the next. This can be done outside or inside. The last clue should lead to a treasure, such as fruit-juice popsicles or a fun activity.

Focus on Reading The Mustang Public Schools' goal is to have 90% of our students by the end of third grade reading on or above grade level.

Research tells us that 74% of those not reading on grade level by the end of third grade will never "catch up." It is imperative for teachers, parents and community to be committed to helping our children learn to read and to read well.

Parents need to begin to read to their child as soon as it is born and continue to read, at least 20 minutes a day, until their child is at least in middle school.

This gives them language experience and helps in vocabulary development. Not only does this help with the child's reading, it also is an ideal way to spend quality time with the child.

Please join us in helping to develop a community of readers!
